Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Luke 14:7-11

Luke 14:7-11. And he put forth a parable The ensuing discourse is so termed, because several parts of it are not to be understood literally. To those which were bidden From this circumstance, that the guests were bidden, and from what is said, Luke 14:12, it appears that this was a great entertainment, to which many were invited: which renders it still more probable that the meeting was concerted, and the company chosen with a view to insnare Jesus. When he marked how they chose out the... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 14:1-24

100. In the house of a Pharisee (Luke 14:1-24)When Jesus visited the house of a prominent Pharisee on the Sabbath day, his critics were waiting to see if he would heal a sick man who was there. When Jesus asked them if healing on the Sabbath was lawful, they refused to answer. Jesus again pointed out the hypocrisy of those who would care for animals on the Sabbath but not for people (Luke 14:1-6).As mealtime approached, Jesus noticed some guests choosing the places of honour at the table. He... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 14:8

When thou art bidden of any man to a marriage feast, sit not down in the chief seat; lest haply a more honorable man than thou be bidden of him.A more honorable man than thou ... What an irony is this! To egotistical social climbers like those guests, it was an unheard-of-consideration that a "more honorable" man than any of them might have been invited. read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 14:9

And he that bade thee and him shall come and say to thee, Give this man place; and then thou shalt begin with shame to take the lowest place. But when thou art bidden, go and sit in the lowest place; that when he that hath bidden thee cometh, he may say to thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have glory in the presence of all that sit at meat with thee.It should be noted that in Luke 14:8 preceding, Jesus begins with the postulate of being invited to a "marriage feast"; and since the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 14:1-24

4. Participants in the kingdom 14:1-24This section contains the record of several incidents that happened when Jesus was the dinner guest of a leading Pharisee. Jesus had just announced that He would leave Jerusalem desolate (Luke 13:35). The present section justifies Jesus’ condemnation by showing that the root of Israel’s problems lay with her leaders, specifically the Pharisees. It also gives the rationale for Jesus excluding many Jews from the kingdom and admitting Gentiles (Luke 13:28-30). read more
